Explain Data contracts?

Answer:

Define which data types are passed to and from the service. WCF defines implicit contracts for built-in types such as int and string, but we can easily define explicit opt-in data contracts for custom types.

There are two types of Data Contracts.
DataContract - attribute used to define the class
DataMember - attribute used to define the properties.

[DataContract]
class Contact
{
[DataMember]
public string FirstName;

[DataMember]
public string LastName;
}
